Members of the NC General Assembly need our help. They need help moving HB141- DACA Beneficiaries/Drivers License Moratorium out of committee. Time is critical. The NCDMV will begin reissuing licenses to illegal aliens on March 25th unless they are stopped.Please send the following message to the 4 individuals listed below. (Don’t forget to send this email to all your friends so they can contact the Leadership as well)

“I urge you to support NC HB141- DACA Beneficiaries/Drivers License Moratorium. This bill is currently sitting in the Committee on Rules, Calendar and Operations of the North Carolina House. Chairman- Representative Tim Moore (R- Cleveland County).This bill would give the General Assembly the time necessary to study all the ramifications of issuing licenses to DACA eligible illegal aliens in North Carolina.

I feel the decision of the NCDMV, to begin reissuing licenses to DACA eligible individuals on March 25th, was made in haste and below the level of Government necessary to make such a decision.

I strongly urge you to slow this process down by supporting HB141 and give our elected officials time to thoroughly study the effects of granting driving privileges to DACA eligible illegal aliens in North Carolina”.

As you may or may not know, the NCDMV had started issuing drivers licenses to illegal aliens ever since President Obama enacted his Deferred Action Program. The practice was stopped a couple of weeks ago until the NCDMV could get a ruling from NC Attorney General Roy Cooper, whether the illegal aliens qualified for one under NC law in conjunction with the Presidents’ program.Today (1/17/2013) the NC Attorney General ruled that illegal aliens DO qualify for a drivers’ license in NC under the Deferred Action Program of the Obama Administration.

However, it is not against the law to deny them one either. Many other states do not. It is up to the State. Just because we can give them one, doesn’t mean we should give them one. A NC drivers’ license is a privilege reserved for law abiding NC residents, not a right guaranteed to law breaking illegal aliens.
